Akakabuto 1,842 Report post Posted October 28, 2020 30 minutes ago, LeftWinger said: 8 team playoff, so that's 24 teams in the lottery? That is absolutely asinine. Since this is special circumstances for the season, there should be a special circumstance for the lottery. Only the bottom 10 teams have a shot, 11-31 are seeded in order (and playoff order.) Teams can only drop 2 spots instead of 3. I am still ok with teams jumping as far as they can, because if they change it to only jump up 3 points, we'll wind up 10th and have zero chance of doing what has been happening over the past few season's, 10-13 jump into the top 3. That would be our luck. Make official rule changes in 21-22. The tweet says OHL, not NHL GM's. 1 LeftWinger reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kipwinger 8,756 Report post Posted November 11, 2020 I'm very "meh" on Hanafin. He's a good enough player, but given that he's cost controlled for the next 4 years the ask will probably be pretty high. And I don't think he's good enough to justify that. 1 WRusco reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kipwinger 8,756 Report post Posted November 21, 2020 It's not really that hard to figure out. No realignment (even a temporary one) is going to pass without a majority of the owners supporting it. And owners of non-traditional markets would be stupid to agree to a division in which they all play against each other. They'd lose tons of revenue. If you're Tampa, would you rather have Detroit and Chicago come to town or Carolina and Dallas? Back when they proposed the realignment a few years ago everybody was all excited about the possibility of an Original Six Division. It was the dumbest thing ever. Why would any owner agree to a realignment plan in which all the most lucrative organizations, with the most established fan bases, all played each other and not you?

I would take Stamkos (plus another asset) in exchange for a 3rd or lower round pick. He has his injury issues the last couple of season's but he is still a pretty elite player. He would have to waive his NMC, but heck, almost all the players that they would "need" to move will have to waive some kind of clause. Not sure is Yzerman would want to take on the 4 years left on the contract though...plus I am not giving him the #91 to wear, unless Fedorov says it is ok, and as an incentive tell Fedorov it'll be retired when the 4 years are up.

Tampa desperately need to shed cap space, but if they decide to trade Stamkos, he wouldn't strictly be a cap dump. They're not giving up assets to get rid of him. They would still get a pretty big return for him. Despite his injury history and age, he's still an elite, over a point per game player. He would instantly become our best player. You're not getting Stamkos (plus another asset) for a 3rd round pick or lower... Not even close. Remove the "other asset", bump the pick up to a 2nd, and include a top prospect, and it might be enough to get the conversation started... I like Stamkos a lot, but we're not in a position to be giving up premium assets for a 30+ player, regardless how much he would improve the team in the short term. 3 hours ago, diehardredwingsfan58 said: And my bet is on Alex Killorn and Tyler Johnson being out the door.

The return would have to be pretty significant for me to want to take on 3-5 years at $4.5-5M of any of those middle six, past their prime forwards... I'd want at least a 1st round pick, plus for each of them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well considering they're removing half of the calendar season and still playing over half a season's worth of games, I would guess that the end of the regular season and TDL would both be a month later than usual. 1 ely s reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
